The GSMA and its global mobile industry conference GSMA Mobile World Congress
have a strong brand and leadership role in the European market. With this flash
our primary objective was to educate the US market and increase attendance to
MWC by 5%.
Credibility needed to be established with personalized engagement online, and
thus the virtual tour/experience was developed. It was hugely successful driving
39% more paid USA attendees year on year. The online survey measured a 95%

consistently ranked in the top 20 most visited web pages.
